About Laquanta

As a child my mother has introduced me and my siblings to the medical field, from volunteer work in hospital facilities to children diagnostic facilities, it became a passion for me and I enjoy working with the elderly (geriatric), I think I can truly make a difference in the lives of others and it makes me proud to be in this field.All in all, you never know who lives you may touch.I have been complimented for many different things, such as the care I give, and showing the empathy and compassion for my residents and patients. You would think that I help make a difference in their lives, truth is they make a difference in mine
